About this deal

One thing I noticed is that the (1,2,3,4,U) buttons are a bit rattly when moving the keyboard around. left ctrl key, 2 function keys, and small 3u space bar, all make this a tough keyboard to customize.

Having said all that, I love the quirks of this little Bluetooth board and I can see a “modding” project to replace the cherry switches in this thing coming in my future (keep an eye here if you want to see that)! initially I was not at all sure about it - it seemed too noisy and I kept hitting the wrong keys and the lack of function keys was annoying, although there was never any question on its build quality which is excellent. To aid long term reliability and usability, the Filco Majestouch Minila-R uses a pair of AA batteries ( not included in India SKUs), which are easy and convenient to source. Read more about the condition New: A brand-new, unused, unopened and undamaged item in original retail packaging (where packaging is applicable).However, it was easy to get used to the small spacebar - I’m “right thumbed” and it pretty much sits there with no problems. I really like this keyboard, even with the weird layout issues it introduces while trying to fix some others. My only gripe is since I went for a UK layout, replacements caps are pretty much out of the question for me.

What a great level of honor from this seller who exactly what he publishes is what he sends and original, new from the factory. To start with, I'm to believe that the switches are plate mounted which makes them feel solid and gives the board a nice, premium weight.

I appreciate the arrow keys and that more than outweighs the issues I have with the other keys - though the 1u right shift might be close. I bought the old Minila Air only for those extra thumb keys, so I can use them for my (sophisticated or crazy) keyboard config.

Quote from: Riverman on Wed, 29 July 2020, 15:35:16 I'm impressed that they're using PBT for the keycaps.PBT has better wear resistance compared to other materials used for keycaps, it is a harder and heavier in material. With the award-winning language learning software Babbel, you can master up to 14 different different languages. They're a Japanese mechanical keyboard brand that predates pretty much all the MK hype we have today. I went for the mx reds since I do a lot of typing in public places and despite liking tactility, perform better with linear switches.
